Abstract

According to an aspect of the present invention, a wireless power reception device includes: a power pick-up circuit which is configured to form magnetic coupling with a wireless power transmission device and receive wireless power from the wireless power transmission device; and a communication/control circuit which is configured to perform at least one among control of the transmission of the wireless power and data transmission and reception on the basis of communication with the wireless power transmission device, wherein the communication/control circuit can receive a check message for checking payment information from the wireless power transmission device and perform a payment procedure for wireless power transmission, and can provide a user interface related to information for the payment procedure.

Claims (33)

1. A wireless power receiver comprising:

a power pick-up circuit configured to form a magnetic coupling with a wireless power transmitter to receive wireless power from the wireless power transmitter; and

a communication/control circuit configured to perform at least one of transmission control of the wireless power and transmission and reception of data based on communication with the wireless power transmitter,

wherein the wireless power receiver is configured to:

transmit a configuration packet to the wireless power transmitter in a configuration phase via in-band communication,

wherein the configuration packet includes an out-band (OB) flag informing whether out-of-band communication is supported or not,

establish the out-of-band communication with the wireless power transmitter,

perform a payment procedure for wireless power transmission by receiving a check message for checking payment information from the wireless power transmitter via the out-of-band communication, and

provide a user interface related to information for the payment procedure.

2. The wireless power receiver of claim 1 , wherein the check message includes at least one of a presence or an absence of payment information, a payment history, a payment method, and information on whether payment is made as a message value.

3. The wireless power receiver of claim 2 , wherein, in the communication/control circuit, payment information is input from a user through the user interface and the payment procedure is performed.

4. The wireless power receiver of claim 3 , wherein the user interface displays a notification message requesting the user to input the payment information when the payment information is not input.

5. The wireless power receiver of claim 4 , wherein the communication/control circuit is configured to transmit a payment completion message to the wireless power transmitter without performing the payment procedure for wireless power transmission when a payment history is assigned as a message value in the check message.

6. A wireless power receiver comprising:

a power pick-up circuit configured to form a magnetic coupling with a wireless power transmitter to receive wireless power from the wireless power transmitter;

a communication/control circuit configured to perform at least one of transmission control of the wireless power and transmission and reception of data based on communication with the wireless power transmitter; and

a device unit providing a display on one side and being communicatively connected to the communication/control circuit,

wherein the wireless power receiver is configured to:

transmit a configuration packet to the wireless power transmitter in a configuration phase via in-band communication,

wherein the configuration packet includes an out-band (OB) flag informing whether out-of-band communication is supported or not,

establish the out-of-band communication with the wireless power transmitter,

perform a payment procedure for wireless power transmission by receiving a check message for checking payment information from the wireless power transmitter via the out-of-band communication, and

provide a user interface connected to a display of the device unit in relation to information for the payment procedure.

7. A wireless power receiver comprising:

a power pick-up circuit configured to form a magnetic coupling with a wireless power transmitter to receive wireless power from the wireless power transmitter;

a communication/control circuit configured to perform at least one of transmission control of the wireless power and transmission and reception of data based on communication with the wireless power transmitter; and

a device unit providing a display on one side and being communicatively connected to the communication/control circuit,

wherein the wireless power receiver is configured to:

transmit a configuration packet to the wireless power transmitter in a configuration phase via in-band communication,

wherein the configuration packet includes an out-band (OB) flag informing whether out-of-band communication is supported or not,

establish the out-of-band communication with the wireless power transmitter,

control the device unit to perform a payment procedure for wireless power transmission by receiving a check message for checking payment information from the wireless power transmitter via the out-of-band communication, and

provide a user interface connected to a display of the device unit in relation to information for the payment procedure.
